To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, JOHN L. YEAGER and ALBERT H. YEAGER, of Lainpeter Square, in the county ofLaneaster and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in the Construction and Combination of Mechines for Shrinking or the following is a specification;

The nature of ourimproveinentin machines shrinking or upsetting tire consists in the construct-ion and iulcrurnbesrings for the smooth-edged jaws f The box has perl'oby which it is secured to B. This bloclc has an upright, U, ex Q, over the pulley linhs L,

with their lever ends F. rated lugs a at base, the block end pulls I on top for it cord, K, which tends from a, foottrendle, to a ring,1t. This ring holds the whieh links are,

Upsetting Tire, of

Cl 10 other respectiij ely, connected with the pewis or arms F of the jaws f, and operates them simultaneously,

The operation is readily understood. The sliding bed on the box A h rod, G, extending to the ing smooth, aswell as the sharply-rounded ends of the jaws eccentrically held, so that when the movable bed is drawn out, the heated portion of the tire set upon the curved beds,

and

steedies the tire, the shrinking is accomplished es in other machines provided with a movable bed and pawls, &0., variously applied with the'saine object in View, but less SZIlJlSfilCtOlY on ordinary occasions. 1 We therefore do not claim any novelty in our machine apart from its construction and combination as a whole; or, in other words,

What we claim is- The construction and combination, as herein described and shown, of the box A, bed-pieces D E, connecting-rod G, and lever H, jows f, links L, ring R, pulley P, cord K and trendle Q.
